*WARNING: The details might be graphic for some readers.*
Fox 4 has the police report, detailing what led up to the arrest of the man.
Deputies responded to a call on Aug. 26. At that time, the mother of the victims said she placed a hidden camera in a bedroom. She said Dominic Fisher could be seen putting her 5-year-old son in a choke hold.
The sheriff's office then attempted to talk to the boy, but said he was upset and didn't say anything. However, investigators said they noticed bruising on the boy's neck.
The other victim in the case, the other child's brother, told deputies Fisher played a game called "John Cena" with them, which involves wrestling and grabbing the neck.
According to the report, the boy said it's playful when their mom is home, but it's not when she is gone.
Deputies said the mother told the investigators she got complaints from the children in the past, which were vague, about not liking her boyfriend, Fisher. She said she had been planning on removing herself and kids from the house, and thought Fisher was aware.
Then, the mother told deputies she had a "weird feeling" on Aug. 25 and put the Blink camera in the bedroom with the kids. In a recorded video, a man is seeing choking a child on the camera for about nine seconds.
At a later time, detectives talked to the 5-year-old boy, who said Dominic kicked him in the stomach and punched him in the neck the night before the choking. The boy said it happens often.
Both children said they had been choked before.
The second boy told deputies he is scared and doesn't feel safe when his mom isn't there.
Fisher is charged with two counts of aggravated child abuse.
